Top 5 quotes from Ernest Hemingway
"There is no friend as loyal as a book."
"There are events which are so great that if a writer has participated in them his obligation is to write truly rather than assume the presumption of altering them with invention."
"The world is a fine place, and worth fighting for."
"Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know."
"Writing, at its best, is a lonely life. Organizations for writers palliate the writer's loneliness, but I doubt if they improve his writing. He grows in public stature as he sheds his loneliness and often his work deteriorates. For he does his work alone and if he is a good enough writer he must face eternity, or the lack of it, each day."
Top 5 quotes from Talking
"It is perfectly monstrous the way people go about, nowadays, saying things against one behind one's back that are absolutely and entirely true."
"None are so fond of secrets as those who do not mean to keep them."
"No man ever listened himself out of a job."
"What this country needs is more free speech worth listening to."
"People have to talk about something just to keep their good voice boxes in working order, so they'll have good voice boxes in case there's ever anything really meaningful to say."
